You can force a reconfigure by creating a file under / with a special
name (e.g., with touch(1)) and then the next reboot will pick it up,
but for the life of me I can't remember the name. Something like
"/RECONFIGURE" or "/CONFIGURE" or "/JANEANE_GAROFALO_WAS_HILARIOUS_
IN_MYSTERY_MEN", er, something.

normally, init 0 and boot -r should review your hardware and make the
CD-Writer available. You can create devices with mknod (see manual page for
details) but then you must no all about major and minor device numbers,
block or character device etc. So I think the first way is what you need to
do.
Hope this helps.

My guess is that the drive is being recognized. Have you tried running
"disks"?

Devices are created by virtue of a driver in the systemQuote:>I am trying to add a CD-Writer on a sun's box (model E450) running

touch /reconfigure && sync && reboot
or by running the following whilst system is running:
sync; /usr/sbin/drvconfig; /usr/sbin/disks
If no driver notices the device and is prepared to drive
it, no amount of creating device entries by hand will
make it work.

1. Manually create Sunray temporary sound devices
Hello
I cannot ssh to a Sunray server, start xmms and listen to music. This is
because xmms cannot connect to the temporary sound device. This is not
created because I am not locally logged in.
When dtlogin logs me in on the Sunray server something create those
temorary sound devices. What is it that create those devices and how can
I create those manually when I want to ssh to the Sunray server and use
xmms?
